Hello to all you good good people out there!

We are also working on releasing more Touchy compatible games, there will be 20 more coming out within the next 6 months.
For all you Android lovers out there, an android version will be coming soon. (We’re working on it as we speak, and will keep you updated).

Happy Halloween all!
Hey Nitromians,
It’s almost time for Halloween again. So what better way to celebrate than pulling a cotton sheet over your head and scaring the bejesus out of everyone?!?
Soul Tax is a hilarious ghoulish treat created by Jarod Long and Lauren Careccia which fits this theme perfectly.
The premise of the game goes something like this...After roaming in Limbo as a ghost for 8 years, you are approached by the grim reaper to pay back all of your ‘soultax’ before you can move onto the afterlife. It’s a fairly simple but dark premise as you must possess and kill office workers by any means possible to reach your toll and progress to the next stage.
...A word of WARNING To anyone who may be offended by some dark and sometimes harrowing content, this may not be the game for you...
For everyone else we would suggest NOT to skip the dialogue! Just don’t. Its a well-written and extremely humorous affair which you seriously don’t want to miss.

Have a happy Halloween Nitromians and don’t forget to come back next week for some more Pixel Love. =0)

Thanks for your support!
There has been a little gap in updates as we wanted to announce what we have been up to with our Touchy and Greenlight projects but that does not mean we have not been beavering away on Icebreaker at the same time….nobody sleeps here don’t you know!
This update covers a little about the characters in the game. Because our web games have a short turnaround time we rarely get to explore the characters in the game world so we made sure to make the most of it this time.
We explore the characters mainly through in game conversations they have. It is quite like how we did it in our Rubble Trouble games but we have made more tools to explore this further than we did in those games.

Ok so hopefully we managed to surprise you with this!
Flightless will be, with your help, our first full PC download game available through Steam!
The game is an epic puzzle metrovania platform game for one or two players drop in drop out co-op split screen! You play as ducks that have had their wings clipped for stealing and to pay it back you must search for gems to pay back your debt in a huge dungeon full of monsters and traps.
With clipped wings flying and even jumping are not possible but luckily you have a magic ladder to help you out. Press the action key and it will cast a ladder upwards or downwards until it hits something.
Use this to climb round the levels, take out enemies, trigger switches, weigh down pressure pads, bend round corners (what?) and much more!
Did we mention you can play this game full screen and that there are no ads…..what!!! No really as this is intended as a free flash game we are going all out to promote it!
You can play the Flightless demo right now!
Vote for us on Steam Greenlight
IMPORTANT!!!: So you guys are always asking if you can help and you really can with this. Voting for us on Greenlight makes it get on Steam and we need that to make this a commercial success. Please don’t assume everyone else will do it anyway….every vote counts so if you like what we do please support us. Then when your done please like, tweet, +1 us and tell your friends so that we can get votes from them too. With the help of our fans we hope to make our most epic game yet!
Hello Nitromians, once again it’s time for us to give out some Pixel Love.
Today we’d like to highlight a game that deserves to be noticed in this wonderful world of the web! Snow Tale is a beautifully crafted platformer from Neutronized.
The run, jump, shoot control method will feel very familiar, and this isn’t a bad thing. With such an enjoyable formula you’ll be snowballing through the levels in no time. However there is more to this game than meets the eye. Popping in and out of houses and getting loads of enemies with the shoot-freeze-kick mechanic is very satisfying. Combine this with the ground pound and end level bosses, makes this a great little platformer.
With lovingly created characters and parallax scrolling landscapes, it’s difficult not to be drawn in to this game (sorry, bad pun!).
So have a play and lose yourself in this winter adventure… it kinda feels like the right time to play it because the summer is definitely over here in London town!
Enjoy and don’t forget to come back next week for some more Pixel Love.
